That's it gunny....just keep on teasing me. One of these days you are going to put your fingers too close to my mouth and then SNAP !!!!!!!!!!!!

This is worse then waiting for the heinz ketchup................but it looks like it will be worth the wait !!!!

Sorry mates, that's all that I have for now!!

That looks VERY nice. But, as I said erroneously before, 1/350, plastic, and a cruiser, what's not to like. It's still a bit expensive for my budget for now, but when I've got the dime, I'll make the time.

Been waiting for the Takao and her sister ship, Chokai, ever since they were announced. Aoshima's recent 1/700 Chokai is a very nice kit, and it's nice to see that the 1/350 kits will exceed expectations. Beautiful!

Takao has docked today.. BIG box...

Well, as of today, Great Models still has it listed as preorders at $110 a pop, and Squadron still does not even have it listed. I think I will take a lloonngg wait on this one trying to get it for $90 or so. Meanwhile, still waiting for the Bama and San Fran.

I paid for my Takao 46 Euros + 35 for shipping to Slovenia - Europe 81 all together. + 9 euros for custom service.

It just got worse. Retail price of this kit has been raised to $139.95. Here's the information: http://www.shipmodels.info/mwphpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=26692 Sixth message down by Classic Warships...
